Het is alsof je kiest voor een dodelijke ejectie of een dodelijke electrocutie, beide kunnen gruwelijk misgaan.

Ook ik vind Cruz nog enger (als persoon) maar als ik naar de feiten kijk dan word ik van Trump ook niet vrolijk, je kan bij hem wel nog hopen dat hij tenminste fatsoenlijk delegeert.
Bij Cruz speelt mee dat bijna niemand hem mag.
http://www.rawstory.com/2(...)epy-unsettling-face/“As a neurologist it is my business to notice things out of the ordinary and probe them,” he wrote. “Senator Cruz’s countenance doesn’t shift the way I expect typical faces to move. Human faces can’t help but broadcast what we feel, what we may be thinking, and even what we may intend.”
“I have rarely, if ever, seen a conventional smile from Senator Cruz. In a natural smile the corners of the mouth go up; these muscles we can control voluntarily as well. But muscles circling the eyes are involuntary only; they make the eyes narrow, forming crow’s feet at the outside corners,” he continued. “No matter the emotional coloring of Senator Cruz’s outward rhetoric, his mouth typically tightens into the same straight line. If it deviates from this, the corners of his mouth bend down, not upwards.”
“Downturned expressions usually signal disagreeableness or disgust. But I honestly don’t know because such an expression is rare in the context of public presentations that are meant to win people over. He may well be unaware that the message of his body language is incongruent with his words,” he said before concluding, “Google ‘Ted Cruz smiling,’ and judge for yourself. For the record I am not a Democrat. I’m at a loss to verbalize what unsettles me so when I watch the freshman senator. But it leaves me cold.”

Mr Cruz went on to work for George W Bush...who didn't like him
In his 20s the high-flying Mr Cruz became an adviser on domestic policy to George W Bush during his 2000 presidential campaign. He then served as an associate deputy attorney general in the Bush administration.
Did his boss like him? Not much. Mr Bush said recently: "I just don't like the guy."
Friends of the former president said he had found Mr Cruz to be "opportunistic" in criticising fellow Republicans for his own gain.
Colleagues in the Senate didn't like him much either
When Mr Cruz reached the Senate at the age of 41 he soon made enemies on his own side. John Boehner, the Republican former Speaker of the House, called him a "jackass". Senator John McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, called him a "wacko bird" and "crazy".
Not one Republican senator has stepped up to endorse him in his presidential bid.
That has given Donald Trump the ammunition to say: "Ted's a nasty guy. Everybody hates him."
...
In eerste instantie ben ik geneigd om empathie te voelen voor Cruz maar dan denk ik even aan de uitspraken die hij heeft gedaan en de empathie verdwijnt als sneeuw voor de zon.
